Britain
proposes
settlement
NewYork Times
LONDON Britain has decided to
propose a three- stag- e plan for set-tlement
of the Falkland Islands cri-sis
that might include only a rela-tively
brief return to British
administration, government sources
reported Wednesday.
During an interim period, following
the withdrawal of Argentine troops,
the sources said, only the British flag
would fly over the disputed South At-lantic
archipelago and only British
officials and policemen would be in-volved
in its administration. But
Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's
government hopes, sources said,
that most of the islanders would de-cide
they must eventually accept
some form of Argentine rule and
make arrangements for the others to
emigrate.
Once that had been accomplished,
the sources said, negotiations for a
transfer of sovereignty, with protec-tion
for the rights of the Falklanders
who stay behind, would be undertak-en
with the Argentine junta whose
troops seized the islands from Brit-ain
oh April 2.
Even a brief period of British con-trol
of the Falklands is believed to be
unacceptable to the Argentine presi--

Israelis bomb
PLO targets,
hit Syrian jets
United Press International
Shattering a nine- mont- h truce, Is-raeli
jets Wednesday bombed Palestin-ian
coastal targets all the way up to
suburban Beirut and shot down two
Syrian MiGs in a dogfight. The Syrians
said they downed one Israeli jet, but Is-rael
denied it
Israeli border towns went on alert
for possible retaliatory raids by the
Palestine Liberation Organization.
PLO leaders held urgent councils in
Beirut and indicated they would follow
American advice to act with utmost re-straint,
sources said. But two radical
Palestinian groups demanded a " mili-tary
response."
Third World nations at the United
Nations denounced the raid and sched-uled
a closed- doo- r meeting for today to
discuss possible sanctions against the
Jewish state.
Palestinian officials said more than
20 people were killed and 80 wounded
in the two- ho- ur bombardment of Pales-tinian
bases and camps along the Med-iterranean
coast from the suburbs
near Beirut International Airport. to
Daraour, 13 miles ( 20.8 kilometers)
south.
The raid, which came as Israel's
Cabinet voted unanimously to return
the eastern Sinai to Egypt as scheduled
Sunday, shattered a July 24 cease- fir- e
for Lebanon negotiated by U. S. Envoy
Philip Habib. Israel had accused the
PLO of numerous smaller violations of
the truce.
Lebanese police said the Israel jets,
described as U. S.- ma- de F- 1- 5s and F- 1- 6s,
destroyed a Syrian radar base in
Doha, on the southern outskirts of Bei-rut,
and several Palestinian bases.
Seven coastal villages and a Palestin-ian
refugee camp in south Lebanon
were damaged. Two ambulances rac-ing
along the coastal road also were
hit, police said.
Lebanon requested urgent U. N. ac-tion.
The Security Council was to meet
atl0a. m. CSTtoday.
In Washington, the State Depart-ment
urged both sides to " exercise the
utmost restraint" and save the cease-fire
" which serves the interests of all
parties."
President Reagan told reporters he
would not comment because the " situ-ation
is too sensitive."
Five Syrian MiGs intercepted five Is-raeli
jets just north of Beirut and Syri-an
and Lebanese officials said one Is-raeli
and two Syrian planes were
downed.
Lebanese police said two Israeli pi-lots
parachuted to the ground near the
Syrian- controlle- d eastern city of Shtau- r- a.
But an Israeli military spokesman in
Tel Aviv said all the Israeli jets " re-turned
safely to base" after downing
two Syrian MiG- 2- 3s the 17th and 18th
Syrian jets to be shot down over Leb-anon
since 1979.
Israel said it ordered the raid after
one Israeli soldier was killed and one
wounded by a land mine explosion in
south Lebanon earlier in the day. It
said the incident constituted a Pales-tinian
violation of the cease- fir- e and
climaxed a number of " bloody and

Cancer board nominee refuses position
ByJacquiFiels : " 4-- "
State capital boresu
A nominee to- - the newly created
cancer commission to govern the El-lis
Fischel State Cancer Center has
declined to accept the position; say-ing
the hospital is giving sub- standa- rd
treatment to patients and he
doesn't want to be associated with it
Richard Bloch's withdrawl was an-nounced
by Sen. Harry Wiggins, D- Kan- sas
City, at the Gubernatorial
Appointments committee hearing,
which preceded Senate confirmation
of four of the five remaining com-missioners
Wednesday. The other
nominee Larry Dixon of Spring-field
was cut of the country and is
yettobe confirmed.
The hospital is an institution of --
hope for cancer patients, Bloch said,
yet it fails to provide qualified treat-ment
" I think many of the patients that
die in that hospital have the right to
sue," Bloch said in a telephone inter-view.
" They receive less than stan-dard
service than is available in the
community and that is the basis of a
malpractice suit"
Sen. Roger Wilson, D- Colum-bia,
who sponsored legislation creating
the commission, disagrees.
" I respect his business acumen,"
Wilson said, " but his medical eval-uation
is his personal opinion."
Bloch said- h- e decided to withdraw
- dtfiWtete stories,
Page7A)
from the commission after a tour of
the facility Friday. He said the facili-ty
was not to blame, but the lack of
" available qualified physicians" is.
An exodus of staff and patients has
been a problem for Ellis Fischel dur-ing
the past several years. Insuffi-cient
staffing has caused two of its
eight floors to be closed.
The hospital admits 2,000 patients
a year, Bloch said, yet has no onco-logist.
Rep. Joe Holt, D- Fult- on, acting di-rector
of the hospital, said charges
that treatment at the hospital is sub- -
standard " may be true today, but
someone has to be responsible" for
turning the hospital around.
If the hospital were to stop admit-ting
patients until qualified staff
could be recruited, Holt said, it
would be detrimental to putting the
hospital back on its feet
" It bothers me, sure, that the indi-gents
are receiving poor treatment,"
Holt said, " but what else are we
going to do?"
Bloch said -- he would love to work
with Ellis Fischel after im-provements
have been made in
treatment there. But until then, he
added, " I den't see how any doctor
with the oath of Hippocrates could
affiliate with this hospital. Each pa--
tient is being denied the chance to
fight for his life because of ignorance
or indigence."
. Bloch is the second person known
to have declined to serve on the can-cer
commission after selection by
Gov. Christopher Bond.
Holt said one other potential board
nominee withdrew his name shortly
before the nominations were to be
announced. Bond has yet to name a
nominee for that seat
Holt said he was told the unidenti-fied
person declined for personal
reasons. The governor's office con-firms
Holt's story but refuses to

Roads : Taxesmay be needed to patch ' em
By Jacques Welter
Missoorian staff writer
The County Public Works Department win
push for a 43 percent increase in the road and
bridge tax levy if the county loses revenue- snarin- g
from the federal government, Director
Bob Hagerty said Wednesday.
The department's proposal would raise the
levy from the current $. 35 per $ 100 to $. 50 per
$ 100 which would raise from $ 375, H to $ 400,- 00- 0
for the Public Works Department
" The issue here is the potential loss of gov-ernment
revenue- sharin- g funds," said Hager-ty.
" If they cut those funds, we will lose $ 295,- 00- 0
from our budget If that happens, and
Boone, County residents do not approve tins
proposed increase, then some major decisions
will have to be made concerning county
roads."
While Hagerty favors the increased tax levy
if federal funds are withdrawn, he said " We
are not ready for a bond issue." In the past he
has said a bond issue would not meet the needs
of the county.
With rising inflation and the increased cost
of labor and supplies, the department finds it
hard to meet its requirements and has had to
make do with a road improvements budget
that has notincreased for the past four years.
The county currently budgets about $ 85,000
for road improvement and repair, and receiv-es
$ 100,000 from the federal government in revenu-e-
sharing for road extension.
However, the county spent about $ 400,000 on
road repairs last summer after severe rains
washed out many gravel roads. This year the
department estimates it will spend $ 376,000 on
road repairs because of the hard winter.
To make up the difference last summer, the
county dipped into its emergency fund. How to
pay for this year's extra costs will be decided
in August.
" This year we not only have had a bad win-ter
where we have to make a lot of repairs,"
said Hagerty, " we also have had to catch up on
work that was scheduled for last year."
One of the weather's casualties has been the
departments' road extension priorty list, a list
that Hagerty sees little hope for under the cur-rent
budget
" To be truthful, I can't foresee that it ( the
list) will ever be enacted with the budget the
way it is," Hagerty said. " And if we lose revenue--
sharing and do not increase taxes, we will
never be able to expand. We won't even to be
able to keep what we have."
If the county loses federal funds and does not
get a tax increase, it will probably allow some
of the roads to revert to gravel over the next
few years, Hagerty has said.
A recent department cost study showed that
blacktop roads cost 13 times more than gravel
roads to maintain over a 10- ye- ar period.
Hagerty said that he does not know when the
tax levy increase might go on the ballot but if
the county loses funding this summer, he
would push for a November vote.
